When I first watched it years ago - I interpreted it in a different way, but then the older, hopefully the more wiser we become, we come to see things with new eyes, and listen with new ears. He was closed off emotionally to himself and to those around him, once he opened up and started to feel compassion for others, he changed and that radiated out to others. Very funny movie about a very serious subject - Change. Great Post.
@lacbear4u unfortunately, I think everyone can relate to being like Phil in the beginning, but very few can relate to him at the end. I wish that would change.
@cyphi1 Thank you. That is what this video is about: doing the same things repeatedly expecting different results. It isnt until Phil begins operating from a charitable heart and not a selfish heart that he changes.
This was an excellent music choice for this vid montage.
@ModeLTU it's sad that most of the time it takes pain to make us change. Some never decide to change at all. Stuck in our ways, doing the same things the same ways, making the same mistakes and excuses. For lots of people their lives are full of Groundhog Days and they never see the shadow of what they've cast behind.
I have to keep telling myself that I can do whatever I want...that's the real test: To find out what it is and do it.

Good point

I'm not a religious person, but the movie is a really great metaphor, I agree.
If only every single person would have a chance to relive their own Groundhog Day..
What a great world it would be.
